Non-human craft was recovered 40 years ago
In what could be described as Britain’s own Roswell, a former member of the British Army’s Parachute Regiment, Franc Milburn, has come forward with claims that could potentially add a new chapter to the UK’s military history and UFO encounters.
During a recent interview, Milburn expressed his desire to shed light on past events in support of other UFO whistleblowers.
According to Milburn, his close friend, who was part of the covert “E Squadron” unit that recruited from the ranks of experienced British Special Forces personnel, recounted an incident from the late 1980s.
The unit was reportedly dispatched to handle the aftermath of an unidentified object shot down by the RAF over Northern England.
“He said they were tasked to secure and retrieve the craft in the north of England,” said Milburn.
Milburn’s friend detailed how they were airlifted to the site to secure and recover the craft, which was immediately recognized as non-terrestrial. The craft’s occupants had apparently left the crash site, prompting a manhunt by the squadron.
“They were flown in by helicopter. They established a cordon, a perimeter, and they approached the craft. He didn’t describe the craft, he just said it was obvious it was non-human, and it was obvious that there were occupants who had fled the scene on foot – or whatever you call it.”
“He said then it became a task of tracking down these beings to try to bring them into custody.”
While some members stayed behind to guard the downed craft, others pursued the alleged extraterrestrial entities. The outcome of this pursuit remains a mystery, wrapped in the secrecy of military operations and the passage of time.
